The best part about Oyster is the service in itself - it intermediates and offers solutions for international employment, that otherwise would not be possible in the case of employers outside your country of residence. Great suggestion for health benefits offering/ international insurance. The app is pretty simple and straight-forward to use for your emplyment details at a glance. I also appreciate the reminders for various tasks, which otherwise may be easy to lose sight off, and the quick resolution of tickets. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is some duplication of effort when it comes to tracking work timesheets, time off, other leave etc on top of those done in the empoyer's systems . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

No idea. Guys, I know this field is mandatory, but there is nothing from my side. If during a year I had some propositions about how to allign the processess - it was always taken. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I loved the fact that when we were demo'ing with Oyster they took time to really understand our situation, and give us a recommendation that was going to set us up for long-term compliance. Also our first contact has been so friendly and responsive that we knew we would be in good hands, and were going to receive a people focused expereince throughout our time with Oyster, as a partner with our company and team members.

I created an account to see resources, and more - but had to get started as the company, even though I would be the employee being switched over. This delayed our ability to get me onboarded while accounts got reset and was a bit frustrating. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like the way you can get your days off and check your contract details, everything is smooth and from the user experience point of view they make it easy and fun. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Nothing to say here indeed, I have tried several solutions before and it's nice that you have everything on the same application and you don't need weird processes to get what you need Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The team are proactive and responsive. It's not just a platform solution but a people solution. Whilst the UX and UI is seamless, I find the biggest value is what the team at Oyster bring in the partnership. The deep expertise and their network is hugely of value.

Unfortunately we cannot integrate with our current HRIS so it does mean using two platforms which can jar our EX and make things more complex for our People Leaders. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love how everything is so easy to access. All my payslips, holiday requests, contracts in one platform. Extremely user friendly and their Help Center /Support service is amazing!! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The only thing I would like is to be able to bulk download documents, clicking one by one can make it time consuming. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's helpful that there is very little interaction with people needed so this saves a lot of time without a need to spend too much time on just conversations with your team. It feels like it's a process that is being done in small snippets and not something that I would need to do for 2 days in a row without any pause. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is some lack of flexibility when it comes modifying contracts. For example changing salary along the way is not that comfortable as it seems once I add it, it can only be changed by your team. I also don't like that I need to wait for a few days to get a first draft of the contract. Some employees when they are joining they are yet not sure if they will want to join as there is a negotiation around the contract. So I think there is too much upfront work until we get to the first draft contract that could start the negotiation with the employee. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Oyster has been really responsive to questions coming from me and the staff. If someone is directly helping me with an issue and they go out on leave, the issue is handed over seamlessly to a different colleague. The hiring process is fairly smooth and the platform is easy to use. They also provide a nonprofit discount which is very helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Oyster can be fairly risk-averse about some positions so we have had to work with another EOR to hire for these (e.g. attorneys, which no one told me in the initial research phase despite having the word "Law" in the title of my organization). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Overall the best thing was that Oyster provided with a clear and detailed documentation highlighting all the important work functions. Furthermore, the attachment of drafts of certain documents such as payslips was very helpful in understanding what to expect and how your net income will look after taxes in a foreign country.
Overall a happy experience and fast response by oyster's reps in all my inquiries. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Nothing, everything was okay. I do not have any particular request. Maybe some legal explanation when it comes to the change of the employment from one employer to another should be useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
